Ever since the release of 'The Fla൲sh' trailer, the DC Extended Universe's movie has been criticised for its computer-generated imagery (CGI), with audiences taking to social me♔dia to air their dissatisfaction.

In response, the film's director Andy Muschietti has de🤪fended the CGI of the film, claiming it was intended to be that way.

As per Collider, the director told Gizmodo: "The idea, of course, is... we are in the perspective of the Flash. Everything is distorted in t꧅erms of lights and textures. We enter this 'waterworld' which is basically being in Barry's POV. It was part of the design so if it looks a little weird to you that was intended."

One netizen tweeted: "I think that the VFX and CGI were meh, and good at some p♏oints. The only thing that I didn't like was the CGI in the scen๊e where The Flash saves the babies and the 'worlds collide' scene."

Another said: "#TheFlash is NOT one of the best superhero/comic boo🎀k films. I've seen way better... and the CGI in the opening scene with the babies as well as when they're in the speed force with all the variants, was just terrible."

Another netizen wrote: "Whoever worked at the VFX department for the flash movie, How TF do you think this looks good? What the hell have you been cooking up for the las🎶t three years?"

Starring Ben Affleck, Michael Shannon, Sasha Calle, Michael Keaton, and Ezra Miller, 'The Flash' follows Barry Allen as he runs back in time to save his mother Nora Allen from being killed, creating an alternate timeline where Gen♒eral Zod has come to destroy Earth and there are no metahumans.

The Flash then teams up with an alternate and older Batm𒅌an and Supergirl to fiꦉght the Kryptonian threat.
